Motor driving device and motor driving method

摘要

Brake mode switching signal production means detects the number of revolutions per unit time of a rotor according to a change in a positional relationship between motor windings of a plurality of phases and the rotor so as to output first and second brake mode switching signals for selecting either a short brake mode or a reverse brake mode for braking the rotation of the rotor based on the number of revolutions. Control means outputs an energization control signal for controlling energization of the motor windings of a plurality of phases in response to the first and second brake mode switching signals. Thus, it is possible to reduce the braking noise and the stopping time.
